The Numbers Are Baffling

Ok - I would like to introduce you to Lisa Lynette Clark: http://www.cnn.com/2006/LAW/03/15/child.groom.ap/index.html

Ms. Clark has the distinction of being number one in 2006 - the first story noted with a child-groom and an older woman.
I don't know about all of you, but the closest some of us got to women, in our early teens - CERTAINLY closest to older, "more experienced" women, were some misplaced catalogs for lingerie, or the squiggly, suggestive lines of scrambled "adult" television, like "ON TV." Of course, the advent of the mankind's highest social and technological achievement, the internet, makes this moot.

NOW, however, its apparently open season on younger men. The fine folks of TheSmokingGun.com have done the public service of tracking 3,496 teachers nabbed for sex with underage students in 2005. Those kids that are getting home schooled just don't know what they're missing.

We're talking about a LOT of folks! Meet: Sandra Geisel (no relation to Dr. Seuss: http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/0803052teach1.html; Amber Kay Marshall http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/0810052teach1.html; Kristen Margriff http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/0811051kristen1.html; and of course, the name that started it all - Mary Kay Letournea (getting married!) http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/0214051maryk1.html

Madness!
